Rachmaninov Vespers performed by Three Spires Singers and Orchestra
conducted by James Anderson-Besant

Programme:
Rachmaninov Vespers (“All Night Vigil”)
Soloists: Nina Vinther (Alto), Henry Laird (Tenor)
Tavener Svyati
Soloist: Barbara Degener (Cello)
Tavener The Last Sleep of the Virgin

The “Vespers” – which is not a setting for a church service but a concert piece – was one of Rachmaninov’s two favourite works. It is full of astonishingly rich romantic harmonies, dramatic contrasts and memorable folk and hymn tunes. It is also includes subterranean passages for the bass section – you won’t often hear a bottom B-flat in choral concerts! Its first performance was in March 1915 as part of a charity performance raising funds for Russian war wounded.

This hauntingly beautiful hour-long work will be accompanied by two pieces by the contemporary English composer John Tavener, whose work is steeped in the chants and traditions of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Dates: Sat 05 Booking and More Information
